Winter Weather Advisory issued March 1 at 2:45PM AKST until March 2 at 6:00AM AKST by NWS Juneau AK
...MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF SNOWFALL EXPECTED THROUGH EARLY WEEK... The active weather pattern continues with split flow developing as an incoming front stalls across the central panhandle, with cold strong northerly outflow winds across the northern inner channels and warmer southerly winds across the southern panhandle. Portions of the central and southern panhandle will see moderate to heavy snowfall through Sunday evening as another surge of moisture pushes into the area. A transition to a rain snow mix is expected through Monday morning for the southern panhandle up to Sumner Strait. Main forecast challenge is potential for temperatures to warm up quicker than expected through Sunday night and into Monday morning with the front moving further north, limiting snowfall accumulations. Another system will bring more accumulating snow to the panhandle Monday night into Tuesday night. The track of this follow up feature could lead to significant swings in snow accumulations from Frederick Sound northward to the Icy Strait corridor. * WHAT...Snow. Additional snow accumulations of up to 5 inches. * WHERE...Prince of Wales Island and City and Borough of Wrangell. * WHEN...Until 6 AM AKST Monday. * IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult. The hazardous conditions could impact the morning commute. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Highest snowfall totals will remain on the northern side of Prince of Wales Island and upper elevations near Wrangell. Heaviest snowfall rates are expected Sunday afternoon through Sunday night. Snow ratios will decrease through Sunday night as warm air pushes northward with a transition to a mixed precipitation through late Monday morning.

About
Trollers Cove Cabin offers a unique wilderness lodging experience on Prince of Wales Island within the Tongass National Forest. This 14x14-ft pan-abode style cedar log cabin sits in a protected cove surrounded by flat coastal terrain and old-growth forest of cedar, spruce, and hemlock. The cabin sleeps up to four people on wooden bunkbeds and a sleeping loft, and is equipped with a table, benches, wood stove, cooking counter, and basic supplies including an axe and splitting maul. The location provides exceptional opportunities for anglers, with bottom fishing and salmon trolling available off 20 Fathom Bank. The cove serves as anchorage for both commercial and pleasure boats, with a mooring buoy available on a first-come, first-served basis. Hunters can take advantage of extended bear seasons in spring and fall, and deer hunting from late summer through late fall. Primitive trails extend from the cabin to nearby lakes and waterfalls, though visitors should have strong navigation skills as trails are not formally designated. Access is by boat or floatplane, located 38 miles from Ketchikan and 21 air miles from Craig. The cabin has no running water or electricity. Visitors must bring sleeping bags, sleeping pads, cook stove and fuel, food, water treatment supplies, cooking gear, light sources, toilet paper, and garbage bags. Water can be obtained from the creek but must be treated. At low tide, a 50-foot tidal flat emerges, exposing rocks and boulders. Wildlife is abundant, including eagles, shorebirds, Sitka black-tailed deer, and black bears. Scenic Spiral Cove lies to the north.
Directions
Access by boat or floatplane. Located 38 miles from Ketchikan and 21 air miles from Craig. An unimproved boat ramp at nearby Polk Inlet is available for launching small craft. Tide levels affect access. Refer to USGS map Craig B-1.
